It Could Be Real
It's a long way back from a twenty-year nap and I'm out of practice now
Another mistletoe in a transient tomb for those who've been beaten down
But it could be real, it could be real for some
I can be real, I can be real enough

If there's a long way round it's where I will be found and I'll get a lazy start
Another perfect day to ignore any pain and duct tape this calloused heart
But I can be cool, I can get a haircut
I can adhere, I can keep my mouth shut

And all through your past broken glass, Shards that left blood on the tracks
The idеal space to be out of the gamе reinventing

In the year of the empty seat at the table, the valued and the grateful to have shared
How they miss them, How they miss them
Another humbling day to revise your routine and echo eternity
Yeah, it's reflection time to affirm and define how stable we used to be
And I could get there but I might be a no-show
Cause I'm just a square and that's just a place to go
I could be fit, I can fit in enough
It could be real, It could be real for some
